What are the responsibilities and job description for the Human Resources Director position at Power of One Consulting?
We’re seeking a Director of Human Resources to join an employee-owned manufacturing company with engaged leadership, low turnover, and a genuine commitment to developing people from within. Because employees have a direct stake in the company’s success, there is a level of ownership, pride, and workforce engagement here that sets the tone for how people show up and contribute.
The foundation is solid. The opportunity is to build on that foundation by strengthening workforce pipeline, improving hiring quality and confidence, developing future leaders, and helping frontline leadership grow in capability and consistency.
This is a visible, high-impact role for an experienced HR leader who enjoys being close to the business. You’ll partner with leadership and operations to help scale the people side of growth while also leading a four-person HR team and overseeing core HR functions including recruiting, onboarding, employee relations, compliance, and payroll.
Why this opportunity is special
There are plenty of HR leadership roles that focus mainly on administration. This is not one of them.
This role is for someone who wants to help shape the workforce and leadership strength behind a growing manufacturing business. You’ll step into an environment where culture is already strong, people tend to stay, and employee ownership creates a deeper connection between individual contribution and company success. The work is not about reinventing everything. It’s about helping the organization scale what already works.
What success looks like
Success in this role will show up in a stronger and more predictable workforce pipeline, better hiring quality, less dependence on staffing agencies, and continued growth in the company’s internal leadership bench. It will also show up in stronger frontline leaders, better visibility into workforce and culture effectiveness, and a people strategy that supports the company’s next phase of growth.
What you bring
To be considered, candidates should have:
- 10 years of progressive HR experience, including meaningful leadership responsibility
- Experience in manufacturing, multi-site, distribution, or other operationally intensive environments
- Experience partnering strategically with senior leadership
- Strong knowledge of multi-state employment law and compliance
- Demonstrated success in workforce planning, hiring quality improvement, and leadership development
- Experience leading an HR team while staying hands-on in execution
- The ability to coach and influence leaders across multiple levels of the organization
This role is best suited for someone who is practical, operationally credible, and comfortable building trust from the floor to the leadership table. We’re looking for a leader who is humble, hungry, and aware—someone who knows how to scale what works, develop people with intention, and balance strategy with real-world execution.
Location
This role must be based in or willing to relocate to Mobile, Alabama. Periodic travel is required to support multi-state operations.
